Just because you "know" afew who don't doesn't mean they account for all the libertarians who are in fact registered republicans or vote for the GOP in the elections.
NONE of the libertarians I know WANT to vote for a Republican, but ONE Republican is really a Libertarian, and that is Ron Paul. Some Republican voters are also libertarian because that's one (sneaky) way to break the Republican-Democrat monopoly on government.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
